[Recon 1.0: Gravel & Specialized Mountain Bike Shoes]
5.00 out of 5, 36 ratings.
Love these shoes. I have small feet and struggle getting shoes in my size, Specialized are one of very few brands that do them. When I saw these had been released 1 very quickly ordered a pair. Delivered quickly. These are perfect if like me you don't want to spend stupid money on shoes but want something that looks nice and are comfortable. Really impressed for the price. Would say they are more of a summer shoe due to the ventilation holes. Fab shoes at a fab price!!

These are gravel oriented shoes but I ride them on both a road bike and a steel off-road touring bike. I'd say comfort is the key feature here. They flex just enough and the wider toe box makes for a very nice experience on longer rides. Great for warmer weather, but I'm sure they'll be just as well paired with some thicker socks for the winter.

When it comes to shoes, I have one very specific requirement- rearward cleat adjustment. I've struggled to find brands that offer enough rearward cleats adjustment for me to be comfortable. I need the cleat to be an inch or so behind the ball of my foot, which is very hard to find in a stiff road/gravel focused shoe.After trying several different offerings I happened upon these. I could not be happier. I ride predominantly gravel and road.These shoes feel in many ways like road shoes, which makes them ideal for gravel. They are stiff and responsive. Unlike traditional road shoes, they are extremely comfortable to walk in and have acres of toe room. The single BOA works perfectly, and I can crank the dial down and still be totally comfortable.Super impressed, well done Specialized.
